  • Folded Corners

    This is my first attempt at creating a folded edge in Photoshop! I, in no way, claim to be a Photoshop expert, so I’m pretty proud of myself for this one. Read more

  • New Beginnings, Blah, Blah, Blah

     This is just one of the many images appearing on Facebook today. I mean, I like it. It’s cute and all, but… I’m so over it. I really hate this time of year. The time between Christmas and New Year’s Eve is just kind of depressing for me. It has been for as long as Read more

  • Church & Technology

    Lee and I have been attending this church (Impact) for a while (admittedly, not very regularly). I’m sure you know my thoughts, if you know anything about me. I fully embrace technology in this setting, and I agree that it’s not going anywhere. By the way, I got this link from the pastor’s tweet last Read more

  • Plight

    I stayed home from work today, because I felt a little under the weather when I woke up. Headache, sniffles, low-grade fever, soup, and old General Hospital episodes have all been close friends of mine today…and so have tears. Today is Nala’s 3rd birthday. It’s been almost a year since she went to live with Read more

  • Latest Production

    I just completed this year’s Annual Fund holiday video, and it has been sent to about 3,000 people. I used LiveType, Motion, Final Cut Pro, and Flash for this project. I’m pretty excited about it. Visit my Video Gallery to see the production in its entirety. I also created a Flash version, which includes a Read more

  • Humor & Thanks

    Instead of the usual, “these are the things I’m thankful for” blog post, I decided to take my inspiration for today’s post from my friend, Kalia*. I found her blog post HILARIOUS the other day, and I decided to share it. Here, my friends, are the Toddler Laws of Property: If I like it, it’s Read more

  • Years

    All day yesterday, much like the morning of September 11, 2001, I kept thinking, “What is November 22? I know it’s something.” I wondered if it was someone’s birthday that I just didn’t have on my Google Calendar. Was it someone’s anniversary? Then, around 11:20 PM, headed home on a dark, somewhat windy road, it Read more

  • Once is Enough

    I was in a kindergarten classroom one morning earlier this week, trying to get shots and sound bytes for this year’s Annual Fund holiday video. I was pretty stressed about not being able to get what I needed in time, but I cracked up when I got back to my office and imported this footage! Read more

  • PING!

    I’m so beside myself! I posted “Step Off the Treadmill – Part 1” last night, around dinner time, and I woke up this morning to several emails, notifying me of comments made on the post. The very first comment was from the film’s producer and co-director, Vicki Abeles!!!! ☺☺☺ She also retweeted the link to Read more

  • I’m baaaack!!!

    You realize you have to sing the title of this post, right? ☺ I haven’t posted to my professional blog since shortly after I started it in 2008. Its ClustrMap tells that sad story. Last Thursday prompted me to begin posting again. Of course, there is no telling how long – or if – I Read more
